Overview

From the Administrator and Designer of "Friends4ever" Community

ï¿½ï¿½ I started "Friends4ever" community siteï¿½just for a fun in November, 2006. I, along with some of my friends thought of a website which would be for our friends only; somethingï¿½that would let us to be more close to each other, know our friends in a much better way and where we can share our thoughts and feelings. So I started working on it; first jobï¿½was to choose a good webhost providing adequate webspace, good features and foremost thing is at least 99% uptime. I shifted theï¿½whole website five times from one webhost to other in the search of thisï¿½before the final launch of the site. Then I startedï¿½the construction of the site; I mainly used PHP language, little bit of JAVA scripts, MySql database system and of course HTML in writing the whole site. After long two months of working onï¿½it, the site finally launched on 15^th of January 2007. Onï¿½this day the siteï¿½was released on the web for viewing and opened publicly for registration. I launched the site as a non-profit website, and to prevent spamming onï¿½the site, I limited the registration to closedï¿½network of friends (to know further about this refer to Registration-criteria help). Now the site is up to you all, hope you enjoy this site.

Thanks,
Subhash Bose,
(Friends4ever Administrator and Designer)

ï¿½ Users with proper permissions may choose to go invisible. While invisible you will not show up in the room's online list. If you have permission to go invisible you will be able to select an option in the Settings section of your User CP that will make you automatically invisible in all chat rooms. If this option is not selected, then you will not appear invisible when you enter a chat room until you click the Invisible button above the online list. You can click the same button a second time to become visible. You may send messages while you are invisible.
